Good read on the Digital habits of Beijing vs. Palo Alto, both representing some of the best schools in their countries.

I am surprised at how popular Apple is in Palo Alto, compared to Beijing. For Chinese, the Apple system is easier to use. Its great you can write characters on the touch pad, instead of having to type them. But, there is a major price difference in China  between Apple and PC's, more so than in the US.

I am also surprised at the high tablet usage (iPad) in Beijing in the sample, much higher than Palo Alto. May be because of the portability?
